Posted by Paige
Join the JRGBC-CV on February 8th for a free luncheon! Across the country, the green building movement is helping homeowners and professionals understand the critical importance of energy efficiency and conservation. Utilities companies are phasing in new technologies, examining the results of trial programs, and preparing the electrical grid for the rapid integration of next generation building and transportation technologies. Join the Charlottesville Branch of JRGBC for an update and prospective look forward at the transformation of Central Virginia’s electricity delivery system. This luncheon will be held at the Charlottesville Community Design Center-CCDC, 100 5th St. NE, on the Downtown Mall, Charlottesville, VA. Doors open at 11:50 and the Seminar begins at approximately 12:10 pm.
Dominion Virginia Power’s Ed Hall, manager of the Conservation and Load Management Program, will give an update on the smart meter program, explore current and future demand-side management & conservation programs, and explain the imminent arrival of EVs and PHEVs and how they will react to the electric grid, and what customers will need to do to prepare for their arrival. Luncheons are free and open to the public; however, advance registration is required by COB Thursday February 3rd. AIA Learning Units are available.
